Oppo had been creating quite a buzz in the last few weeks regarding its new smartphone, the Oppo F7. After the weeks of teasers, the device officially unveiled the handset amongst the crowd of bloggers and tech enthusiasts, at an event in Hyatt Regency. In the ceremony, the officials highlighted the features of the phone and boasting the potential of its AI-powered 25MP selfie camera on a hopeful note.
The OPPO F7 is the successor of highly successful OPPO F3 and OPPO F5. It now comes with improved AI features implemented in cameras and for face unlock. The 25MP front camera combines Sony 576 HDR sensor and AI beauty 2.0 to produce well-exposed, vivid, and realistic selfies. The AI also recognizes up to 300 facial spots to fine tune the beautification process based on gender, age, skin tone and its type.
The OPPO F7 features a 6.23-inch Full HD+ IPS LCD display. With 19:9 aspect ratio and narrow bezels, the phone has a staggering 88% screen to body ratio.
In terms of performance, the phone has a powerful 12nm based Helio P60 processor which is comparable to Snapdragon 636. There are 2 memory variants, and both the 4GB/64GB and 6GB/128GB has made its way into Nepal.
The OPPO F7 runs ColorsOS 5.0 based on Android 8.1 Oreo. With 3400mAh battery, you can expect 1 day of battery life. The phone, however, lacks fast charging and uses an older micro-USB port for charging and data syncing. On the back sits a 16MP camera with LED flash and a fingerprint sensor -- All enclosed in a glossy plastic body.
When the device was launched in India, the 4GB/64GB and 6GB/128GB variants were priced at INR 21,990 (NRs. 35,184) and INR 26,990 (NRs. 43,184) respectively. We are really impressed that the device is priced competitively and close to the internal pricing. At this price, the device will direly go against the Vivo V9; a camera-centric smartphone available at a similar price.
